lyrics

Sea winds shake the downs
Raging through guilty grounds
Those who have seen hell
Survivors, here to tell
They knock on our doors

They're gazing at our fences
And trenches
They’re stumbling ‘cross our minefields
Fine shields we are

Borderline patrols
Heading the exit polls
High walls stretched out
What’s that all about
People come on

They're gazing at our fences
And trenches
They’re stumbling ‘cross our minefields
Fine shields we are

It’s cold outside
So come in and hide

Behind our gloomy fences
And trenches
Our barriers and minefields
Fine shields we are
